    Thanks Clutch, please tell Tilman to fix this problem and to give us our 'classic' uniforms and jerseys back.
    Tell him if he doesn't, you aren't going to Kemah

    I'm going to be screaming from my man cave up here in OR while my wife and daughters complain about how I don't pay attention to them. I expect the same kind of noise and sacrifice from the crowd. I want the announcers to have to yell into the mic. If the Rockets get down, if GS goes on a run, that is when you need to amp it up even more. We can't afford to have something "quiet the crowd."

    Run as One.

    Can't change the fact that those tickets are all already sold to corporations. Tillman can change that going forward next season however!

    But the same issues apply to other teams as well. Many Warriors lower level tickets are bought by corporations, and the bay area also has a traffic problem.

    So glad you put this in the article. People outside (and inside) Houston really think we don't care about the Rockets..

    Tech Companies VS Oil Companies. That money is younger and more enthusiastic. That's my hypothesis.

    I didn't believe you, so I counted the middle section...

    21 rows * 18 seats each = 378 total seats
    97 empty seats

    ~ 75% full

    I'm sorry I doubted you...

    Yup. Let’s see how it looks for games 3 and 4. Tip off is at 6pm for them. Bet it’s full. A lot of them ferry over from San Francisco, so I don’t want to hear traffic as an issue.

    At least you can take BART straight to The Coliseum / Oracle complex from all over San Francisco / Oakland. Much less of a hassle than driving yourself to a Rockets game from the suburbs during rush hour.

    I appreciate the article, Clutch, but I feel like nothing is going to change as long as companies are buying up those seats and that damn bar being there.

    I’ll be there.. Section 119, red and rowdy. I’m usually in my seats 30-40 minutes before tip.
